Hi everyone,
I am MARS from belgium. I run a small printing company with my father. We are mainly working on digital printing system but we still have some offset press (1 and 2 colors. We got a 4 colors press in the past but decided to stop as the market is satured). We focus on black &white with a varioprint 6150(good machine but soon to be replaced with a DP line or a varioprint 4000 as the contract came to an end and OCE refused to assure maintenance), a varioprint 2090(incredibly robust, contract ended 8 month ago and she is still working at almost no cost) and a xerox 4112(not a bad machine but we got plenty of serious problems with it. Almost everything was already replaced on it(computer and screen included)and it's only running for 8 month(1,7 million click)).
We are also using a CPS900 from OCE but we don't have much work for a color digital printing system and lost most of our customers for this with the prior system (a CLC4000 from CANON). We are very happy with it and are going to reconduct the contract for 3 years (to be clear, the machine is far to be perfect but we are getting what we are looking for with it. The fact that the machine have 7 colors help a lot with the quality and the colors are very stable over time).
Last but not least, we also use a EPSON pro 11880 (quite happy with it until now but it's not as good as the HIFIjet from roland we also have but is not curently running(as it's much more expensive to run))
Business is difficult as anywhere in west europe(I supose).
That's all

Hey everyone!
I work for a local newspaper. I started out in the mail room and worked my way into the pre-press plate room.
I am now one of the newer apprentice pressmen for the company. I am around 7 months into my apprenticeship.
I was trying to look for some help of training on a few things when I came across this forum. Figured I would try my luck.
Didn't see what I was looking for right off the bat, but that can wait until later and in another thread.
Hope to meet some good people and learn a thing or two on the way.
Peace.

Hi...I been in the business since 1978 and have worked in various positions in mfg. Web: letterpress, offset, and gravure, and I've run sheetfeds for about 12 years. The last press I ran was an A.B.Dick 9995A w/factory dampener. I'm currently going through a Ryobi 3302 w/kompacs. Question:how do you get a good set to the plate with this system. It has 2 adjustments. 1. eccentrics on the press itself for the form,which appears to effect the entire unit. 2. a couple of spring loaded shalves on either side of the top of the kompac which appear to have little adjustment. If you preload them just a little the form will not drop to the plate. Is this typical for this unit? Or do I simply not understand the function of these adjusters? thanks...My wife and i like to ride motorcycles and travel.

Hi
I'm Andrew. I have been in print for almost 30 years now, working for a promotional products company in rural UK where we will print on just about anything if its cheap by just about an method except crayons.
Great to be amongst people that know what bleed is and maybe have some suggestions on new brands of turd polish. Might even be able to offer some help along the way too.
